Class Descriptions
Chinese Dance
Keep your little ones active through Chinese Folk Dance! Students will learn basic shapes and gestures found in Chinese dance and ballet as well as basic tumbling skills and floor exercises that support healthy motor development. Props may be introduced in level 2. Basic barre-work is introduced in level 5.
Chinese Classical Dance
Both delicate and strong, classical Chinese dance features intricate gestures, circular motions, and use of breathe stemming from Chinese movement traditions such as ancient court dance, tai chi, Chinese opera as well as ballet. Classes focus on proper body alignment, strength and flexibility, and expression. Students also work on various forms of tumbling, jumping, spinning, and other skills.
Chinese Folk Dance
Learn to dance with silk fans, drums, and even bowls and spoons! In China, there are 56 official indigenous ethnic groups each with their own form of dance. Many of these forms also vary from region to region.
KPOP
Kpop is similar to hip hop, but influenced by culture and trends in east Asia. Learn the latest dances from popular mvs by some of the biggest Korean popstars such as BTS, Katseye, or BOYNEXTDOOR.
